My original poem for today:
LEMONADE
by Jim Danielson
Life
A jumble of cliches
Challenges
When life gives us lemons,
We make lemonade
We walk a mile in an other's moccasins
Or a hundred yards with their walker
One foot dangling in the air behind
If it doesn't kill you,
It'll make you stronger
I feel the strength
First and foremost
From the love that surrounds me
And second
From my personal lemonade
My writing.

My writing."
Really like your closing.
